Modification on the chloride binding capacity of alkali activated slag by applying calcium and aluminium containing phases

In this study, a modified alkali activated slag system is designed by introducing additional calcium and aluminum containing phases in the binder, aiming at promote the formation of Friedel's salt (Fs) within the reaction products and therefore achieve a better chloride binding capacity. The effect of calcium and alumina contents on phase...

Tensile characterization and constitutive modeling of sintered nano-silver particles over a range of strain rates and temperatures

Sintered nano-silver die-attach materials have been widely used in high-power electronics packaging because of their high thermal and electrical conductivities. In this study, we characterized the tensile properties of sintered nano-silver particles over a range of strain rates and temperatures, and established the constitutive models. First, 50...

Insights into the high-sulphur aging of sintered silver nanoparticles: An experimental and ReaxFF study

In high power electronics packaging, sintered silver nanoparticle joints suffer from thermal-humidity- electrical-chemical joint driven corrosion in extreme environments. In this paper, we conducted aging tests on sintered silver nanoparticles under high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-sulphur conditions. The results show that: (1) the...
